The largest private university in New Jersey, FDU is a not-for-profit, nonsectarian, multicampus institution. Founded in 1942, FDU achieved four-year status in 1948 and approval as a university in 1956.
The University offers over 100 undergraduate and graduate degree programs, including doctoral programs in pharmacy, nursing practice, clinical psychology and school psychology; and an AACSB-accredited business school. Degree programs are offered on two New Jersey campuses and at two FDU locations outside the U.S.: Wroxton College, in Oxfordshire in England, and the Vancouver Campus, in British Columbia, Canada.
FDU's 11,500 full- and part-time students pursue quality career-oriented programs on schedules tailored to their needs -- days, evenings and weekends.
The curriculum reflects a mission of global education and a foundation of a world-renowned University Core.
The Office of Institutional Research and Assessment supports the University mission by its commitment to developing and providing quality and accurate information for effective policy formulation, decision-making, accreditation, assessment and strategic planning activities at the University.
In order to figure out what to major in and what career to pursue, start out by understanding your own personality traits, skills, and desires. Then, find out the facts about majors, concentrations, and degrees (academic advising can also help) that match your unique profile. Finally, explore career options that fit. Self-assessment and career exploration tools and tips are available on-line.
FDU is dedicated to supporting the whole student--academically, physically, emotionally, socially and spiritually--through a variety of offices and services. Academic assistance and advisement, health and wellness centers, graduate and career guidance, and a variety of programs serving students of special needs and circumstances are all available and their use is actively encouraged.
Student Health Services Metro provides support services for students who request special accommodations or advocacy for those who may have a need to interrupt their academic responsibilities due to a medical problem.
The Frank Giovatto Library is on the Teaneck side of the Metropolitan Campus. Its collections contain approximately 154,000 volumes and 1,320 DVDs. Approximately 430 periodical titles are currently received.

Together with the ISIC Association and British Council IELTS, Studyportals offers you the chance to receive up to £10000 to expand your horizon and study abroad. We want to ultimately encourage you to study abroad in order to experience and explore new countries, cultures and languages.
FDU allows students to experience as mucbkf the world as they choose to and they truly work with you in finding what it is you want to study. I would just want there to be more study abroad opportunities and better dorms
I would not recommend this university to someone who is seeking to experience living in a big city. Although we are close to New York City, the campus is in a suburban setting.
Small lovely school, with many international students. It was great to be close to New York City
